Suggestions for darker green static grass

I would use an airbrush to color the tops of the grass. Come in at a low angle, and minimize the paint flow. Go easy. One or two passes, then walk away.  Come back later and decide it you really want another coat.  It's easy to over do it.

Your grass looks great, by the way!

Scenic express has every shade of grass imaginable. Call Jim and see what he has available.

Just paint it with an air brush, or it might just be your lighting, Led's , florescent , and incandescent can all  the color off!

I enjoy air-brushing, so will likely give that a cautious (thanks @John Sethian ) try.

My lights are dimmable warm white LED's. For layout lighting, I prefer these to florescent, incandescent or halogen. I am in a basement, so little natural light gets in. Light source certainly does have an influence on final appearance as @Dave Koehler mentions, but I am stuck with LED's.

Wow, Scenic Express has a long list of product. Heki and Noch dark green appear to be the right shade, at least in the pictures.

Thank you all.

You might try soaking the grass in liquid Rit clothing dye before placing it. Then spread it out to dry before installation. An India ink/alcohol mixture would probably also work, but ink is available in fewer colors.

EDIT: Since static grass is a synthetic fiber, the specific Rit product you want is called "Dyemore", which is formulated for synthetic fabrics.

How about this brand?:
